The President welcomed the idea of building a facility that would produce polypropylene and polyethylene in Kazakhstan and signing an agreement on cooperation with the national companies Samruk-Kazyna and KazMunayGas. The President emphasised this factor would give a powerful impetus to speed up partnerships between Kazakhstan and the Russian Federation.
